Hello! This is Hanny.
One day, I started writing. The rest is history.
Beradadisini is is my personal blog. For over a decade, it has always been a safe space for me to have fun and be creative. Writing is my preferred medium to share my journeys, memories, thoughts, and life lessons—in a way that feels most natural and comfortable to me.
On this blog, I mostly write about things that can bring you calm and comfort, give you a burst of courage and creativity, nudge your curiosity, or help you see things with a bit more clarity.

I contributed some articles for Thrive Global (2017) and my personal essays have been published by a cultural journal, Garland Magazine, Australia (2020) and by a literary, photography, and creative publication, Postall magazine, vol. 01, Relationships, Mexico (2021).

Today, when I’m not writing or making art, I facilitate creative workshops & retreats related to fiction/non-fiction writing, journaling for self-discovery, art-making for self-expression, mindful storytelling, and personal branding.
The happiest moments in my blogging life include: having 5 of my articles being Editor’s Pick-ed on Wordpress, being profiled on WordPress Discover, and meeting Matt Mullenweg, twice!.
Let me know how we can collaborate and do fun stuff together by dropping me a happy email here.
Until then, enjoy the blog!
